After bo sing the entire game, especially in midfield, it seemed Croatia would be going out after Neymar's extra-time goal, but a 117th minute equalizer from Bruno Petkovic sent it to penalties and then goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic was the hero again. An incredible story. We had fun, thanks for joining us!Remember, We won only four of our nine live bets, but come out with a profit anyways.Croatia vs. Brazil: Penalty shootout4th pen:MARQUINHOS OFF THE POST! BRAZIL ARE OUT!3rd pen:The one save by Livakovic on Rodrygo remains the only mi s so far. Livakovic gue sed correctly on Casemiro too but his penalty was unsaveable, while Pedro got him with the stutter step.1st pen:LIVAKOVIC SAVES AGAIN! It's a poor penalty from Rodrygo, and the Croatian goalkeeper continues to have a sensational tournament. What a moment.Here we go! A bet on a penalty shootout cashes in such an unexpected manner! We have backed Brazil here, but we're profitable either way through this match. Livakovic was immense against Japan, but there's no way he can save penalties here, can he?Croatia vs. Brazil: Extra-time120+2 min:Wow, Livakovic has been immense. He just kept Casemiro out from a late winner, before Josko Gvardiol makes a diving headed Jared Norris Jersey clearance on the ground. This game has been insane at the end!117th min: GOAL! CROATIA!It's an equalizer, and penalties are still on! Bruno Petkovic gets on the end of a cro s from Ivan Perisic down the left, which was coming. Took a huge deflection on the way through. What a moment!HIGHLIGHT: | Getty Images We should have taken the goals prop, but it just didn't have enough value for how little time was left. Should have with cards too, because of course Petkovic takes his shirt off celebrating! Incredible. What a sport! No regrets, trust the proce s, the penalty selections are still in play now!113th min:There are two things we're thinking about doing here as the game winds down: cards and goals. The game has exploded to life now as Croatia are desperate to get an equalizer, and it's turned into a track meet and a foul fest. Over 1.5 extra-time goals is enticing at +165, but it's just not enough value to make a play here for us. Over 0.5 extra-time yellow cards has Chase Young Jersey the same feel at +110, just not quite enough value there.109th min:Croatia are doing well to push forward, and there could be something still in this. Ivan Perisic has a great cro s but there's nobody there to meet it. Luka Modric wins a corner, and Croatia make a change before it, with left-back Borna Sosa off for attacker Ante Budimir.105+1 min: GOAL! BRAZIL!Well! Neymar! Livakovic has a howler and lets Neymar go right around him, and it's a winner for Brazil! We went all-in on penalties, and that was a sensible way to play this, but Neymar finally produce a moment of magic. Getty Images Penalties are still in play, but only if Croatia get an equalizer. They have 15 minutes to do so! Thankfully, hedging the bets with a full-time score helps immensely.HIGHLIGHT: | As this extra-time drags on with very few chances, we're making another pick for penalties. This will probably be the last pick of the day! Brazil are 8 of 13 in penalty shootouts all-time at major tournaments, and have won three straight at the World Cup. They have a brilliant run of attacking players in the side, and while Richarlison and Vinicius have come off, replacement Rodrygo is a perfect 3-for-3 from the spot in his career.Conversely, while Croatia have won three of their four World Cup penalty shootouts, they were le s than convincing against Japan in the Round of 16, with Marko Livaja mi sing his effort. Also, Ali son is spectacular at saving penalties.PICK:Brazil to win on penalties (+180)If we get there, records on penalties as per Alison saved 13/32 (40.6%)Livakovic saved 14/54 (25.9%)Average is ~20 to 22%Both keeprs above average, one exceptionally so Jason Murphy (@jasonjmurphy1) There's some Jonathan Allen Jersey good value on extra-time finishing 0-0, which they so often do, enough to roll with it early. We already have a pick on this game going to penalties, but there's good value on doubling up. Brazil don't look likely to score, they have so little urgency against this Croatia tactical game-plan.PICK:Extra-time correct score 0-0 (-110)91st min:Brazil start extra-time with a corner as they push for a goal. It's been spotty from the
